God is Great!
Psalm 70 :4-5 – May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, “God is great!” But I am poor and needy; hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay! We’ve gathered in the name of the God who is great, who rewards those who diligently seek him (Hebrews 11:6). He has made known to us the path of life; in…

Be a Paul to a Timothy
Paul saw himself as a steward. Paul saw Timothy as his responsibility. You can see this in his encouragement to Timothy in chapter 1 and verse 18 and following. He urges Timothy to fight the battle well. He knows that Timothy must do that, but Paul sees it as something he should bring to Timothy’s mind, Paul is building Timothy up in the faith. Paul is using his role as the opportunity to tell the young preacher to keep fighting.…
Father’s Day
The awesome responsibility of being a father has been laid upon countless men throughout the ages. Men continue to struggle, many becoming successful fathers, some not. One way that men can be sure that they’ll do the best job possible when it comes to leading the family is to include God and His instruction. Nothing is more important than a godly father. Those of us who were blessed to have fathers that feared and served God, can easily see the…
June Updates
Greetings everyone! The family and I are on vacation this week, but I have been thinking about you all and praying for you. I have a few things to remind you about and ask for your help with… VBS is rapidly approaching. I am still in need of some “policemen and policewomen” to make sure our students get where they need to go and stay (relatively) quiet doing so. If you can help with that, please let me know. Also,…
Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers represented in our audience today. We certainly hope that you have a wonderful day and are able to be surrounded by family. As we gather to worship today, our morning lesson will focus on a mother from the New Testament that everyone should be able to learn from. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was not perfect by any means and certainly had her moments of struggle, but it is vital to remember the…
The Grace of Christ
Come and let’s study the “grace of Christ” today! We have such an awesome privilege to serve the risen Lord. We have been called to live in His grace. We all look like Paul, who was also called to live in the grace of Christ. In our chapter examination we will find some obvious clues of what an incredible life he found in Christ Jesus. We will celebrate the life that the power of the grace of Christ can produce.…
Note from us
REMINDER: Tonight at 6:30pm in the annex will be our time of discussion. Alex will be leading that discussion of the times where Jesus used the word “woe”. Please come and be a part of this good study! Also, please remember the workday that is scheduled for this Saturday at the building beginning at 8am. We need your help on several projects inside and outside the building, so please make plans to come and help out!
We are Human and so Are Children
“Because I said so…” “I am the parent, you are the child. Never forget that.” “If you don’t stop, I am going to lose it.” “I brought you into this world and I can take you out.” These are all phrases used in the Hollywood representation of parenthood. Sadly, I admit that most of these have been used in my house. It is a tough thing to be a parent! Remember that you are human and so are those children…
I Can’t Get Enough
“I can’t get enough,” is a phrase we hear, or say occasionally, about certain things we are interested in. Someone might say, “I can’t get enough money,” “I can’t get enough land,” or “I can’t get enough of sports.” Do we ever use this phrase speaking about spiritual things? For example, have we ever said, “I can’t get enough of God’s word?” Knowledge of God is more important than knowledge of worldly things. Knowledge of God should be a priority…
